Russell Wilson says Broncos need to have a ‘playoff mentality’

If the Broncos are going to save their season, now’s the time.

The Denver Broncos are two games behind in the AFC’s playoff hunt, and they’re set to face a formidable foe in the fourth-seed Tennessee Titans on Sunday.

It’s do-or-die time for Denver’s season.

“You have to have a playoff mentality right now,” Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson said Wednesday. “This is one of those things you approach this week and understand that you’re playing a great football team in the Tennessee Titans. They do a lot of great things across the board.

“We have to be at our best and bring our ‘A’ game. That’s what we’re looking forward to — preparing at the highest level this week.”

If Denver managed to upset the Titans on the road, the Broncos would improve to 4-5 and their slim playoff hopes would be revitalized. If they lose, however, dropping to 3-6 might be too deep of a hole to dig out of in the final eight games of the season.

Denver has to treat every game like a playoff game going forward.
